Can I make a Website like this?

Is it possible for me to make a Website similar to this one using
FrontPage 2003? http://dev.origami.com/diagram.cfm
It is a database Website where the person puts a search description in
the box for diagrams showing how to fold origami. If you put the word
'flower' in the search box, then a few pictures will show up and then
if you click the pictures then the diagrams or instructions will show
up.

I would like to make a site similar to this one. The same concept. Does
anybody know where I can get online step by step diagrammed
instructions on how to make this type of site? I tried the database
tutorial, but it only shows how to bring up names and information on
people but not images or files--nothing like this one. Thank you for
your time in advance.

You are not going to find a step by step guide, etc. as most database driven site are custom
designed to meet the specific needs and goals of the project/site. The site you indicated was code
in Cold Fusion. However FP is just one of many tools and skills a developer would use to create such
a site.

You will need to first determine what you web host supports in terms of scripting languages and
databases, then you will learn to code in the supported scripting language, etc. and be prepare to
spend the time, or you will need to hire a developer to build the site for you.

you can display images with the FP database/asp feature - it is just a bit more
complicated, but search in Help for display images in database, that should
assist you. I think it even links to the knowledgebase article on the topic on
www.microsoft.com
